‘The Real Housewives of Dubai’ Set to Return to Bravo for Season 2
The Real Housewives of Dubai season 1 premiered in June 2022. It was the first Real Housewives installment not filmed stateside, and fans enjoyed seeing how life in Dubai differed from life in the United States. While season 1 was successful, fans didn’t hear much about season 2 until recently. Season 2 is officially a go, and it premieres this month.
‘The Real Housewives of Dubai’ season 2 will premiere on June 2
The Real Housewives of Dubai will return for its second season after a long hiatus. The premiere episode of season 2 will air on Bravo on Sunday, June 2, at 9 pm. The premiere episode will be the first time fans catch back up with the Dubai housewives since September 2022. Season 1 premiered in June 2022 and wrapped up in September.
The series won’t live in the Sunday timeslot, moving forward. Following its premiere episode, The Real Housewives of Dubai season 2 will air weekly on Tuesdays at 9 p.m. on Bravo. Streaming service users will also be able to watch. Each episode will be available on Peacock but on a delay.
Who is set to return to the show?
Season 1 of The Real Housewives of Dubai introduced the world to some of the most influential women in the City of Gold. The majority of the cast is returning. Sara Al Madani, Chanel Ayan, Caroline Brooks, Lesa Milan, and Caroline Stanbury are all set to appear.
Al Madani is a UAE native with a successful fashion career. Ayan is a Kenya-born supermodel. Brooks, an American, moved to Dubai in 2010. She has built a successful real estate career following the end of her marriage. Milan was born in Jamaica but has built a successful life in Dubai with her husband and three children. Stanbury has a reality TV history. She previously appeared on Ladies of London.
While The Real Housewives of Dubai is the youngest installment in the Real Housewives franchise, there are still some cast shakeups. Nina Ali, who appeared in season 1, has opted not to return for the show’s sophomore season. According to Entertainment Tonight, Ali announced her departure in 2023, citing “new challenges” in her life. Ali owns a fruitcake business.
With Ali’s departure, Bravo has cast a new housewife. Taleen Marie will be taking Ali’s place. Taleen Marie is a singer and songwriter who is now more focused on a wellness company she founded after moving to Dubai in 2014. She isn’t the only new face, either. Saba Yussouf will join the cast as a “friend.”
